About this asset

This Rhino plugin provides a functional tic-tac-toe game example built with Python and Eto UI for developers and custom tool builders. The package serves as a technical reference for Rhino developers, demonstrating the integration of Eto UI frameworks within the RhinoCommon environment. It structures a complete, playable game of tic-tac-toe, offering a clear, readable codebase for those looking to understand how to build custom interfaces for Rhino. The logic highlights how to manage user inputs, game state, and UI updates within the Rhino viewport ecosystem. It is a clean, educational tool designed to show best practices for building interactive, window-based applications that run directly inside the Rhino software environment.

The download is a 1 MB file containing .ZIP files.

To implement this, load the script into your Rhino environment to explore the underlying Python and C# logic. Developers can adapt the Eto UI structure to create their own custom panels, toolbars, or interactive design interfaces. It serves as a boilerplate for testing UI responsiveness and event handling within the RhinoCommon API, allowing for rapid prototyping of custom tools that require user interaction beyond standard command-line prompts.

This asset is intended for computational designers, software developers, and BIM managers who are building custom automation tools for architectural practices. It is useful in professional office settings where teams are developing proprietary plugins to streamline design workflows or automate repetitive modelling tasks. When searching for this type of resource, professionals often look for scripting references, UI development examples, or RhinoCommon documentation to aid in the creation of bespoke software solutions for complex architectural geometry and data management projects.
